Fibromyalgia is a form of extracellular rheumatism characterized by discomfort, pain and stiffness in many areas of the musculoskeletal system, including joints, periarticular areas, muscles, ligaments, tendon insertions, subcutaneous tissue and bone prominence. Fibromyalgia occurs mainly in women and can be caused or exacerbated by physical and mental stress, weak sleep, trauma, exposure to moisture and cold, infection and rheumatic disorder. The main symptom of fibromyalgia is pain that is proven by palpation or slight pressure. Although fibromyalgia has been known for 150 years, its causes have not yet been revealed. There are no specific searches for fibromyalgia. Diagnosis is usually based on the description of the symptoms and the medical examination. Doctors rely on the history of the disease, subjective symptoms of the patient, physical examination, and precise determination of painful points on the body after exclusion of other possibilities. Fibromyalgia treatment according to the guidelines of the European League Against Rheumatism requires a multidisciplinary approach to the patient. Although no ideal drug for the treatment of fibromyalgia has been found so far, some of them can alleviate the symptoms. For that reason, there is a medication and non medication treatment, and their combination is inevitable and most effective. Physiotherapeutic procedures can significantly help alleviate these symptoms by reducing muscular tension, reducing fatigue and pain, improve the condition and functional lung capacity, and reducing the symptoms of the disease. The task of a physiotherapist is to educate a person about how to deal with the disease and the necessity of changing the way of life.
